Ostensibly, White House party crashers Tareq Salahi and his wife could facilely be dismissed as another pair of publicity infatuated cretins. Commentators have been quick to compare them to the deranged Balloon Boy parents, desperate for fame at any price. Obamanutz devotes an entire chapter to the putrification of our pop culture that has spawned and enabled this kind of narcissism.
Two strangers getting access to the President of the United States is disturbing enough by itself. We were told early on that Salahi is “half Palestinian.” That’s not the half of it.
The Salahi’s are deeply in debt as a result of living far beyond their means and love consorting with the rich and famous. Salahi loves polo and wine.
Largely overlooked thus far is that Salahi also loves the American Task Force on Palestine (ATFP)
America’s Polo Cup’s web site’s bio of Salahi confirms:
“Salahi has made diplomatic visits to the Middle East and is arranging future matches both in the Kingdom of Jordan and in Dubai. “We will be sending over the U.S. team in 2007 to support charities in that region,” says Salahi, who is also a board member on the American Task Force on Palestine and fiercely committed to the task force’s goals for peace, freedom and democracy in the Middle East.”

Pro-Palestinian freeloaders. Obama’s constituency.
Or were they acting on behalf of someone with an interest in learning more about WH security?
Finally, we've come to Gategate
“half Palestinian.”
I see. That will be the reason why they will be exonerated in the media and by the “justice” department.
They will go on to become TV celebrities, just like they planned.
Nothing but a bunch of narcissists.
I hope that’s all it is.
They should be thrown in with Jon and Kate in a steel cage
death match!
Gategate!! LOL!!!
"The family has been trying to sell the business because, his parents said, Tareq ran it into the ground, piling up as many as 50 creditors and almost $1 million in debt while he was its president.Among its creditors are the Washington Redskins, for whom Michaele used to be a cheerleader. The couple owes the team $224,000 for season tickets. They also had a $57,000 Carver Mariner yacht, an $80,000 Aston Martin and an Audi that were repossessed.
There is also a $3.5 million fraud suit against the company, plus hundreds of thousands of dollars in credit-card debt and legal fees.
A catering company has sued Tareq Salahi for more than $300,000, claiming he never paid the bill for food for a polo-charity event.
Meanwhile, a purported nonprofit run by the Salahis -- Journey for a Cure, which has claimed to raise millions for research on multiple sclerosis -- was flagged in May by Virginia consumer-affairs officials for failing to apply for tax-exempt status.
Grifters, looters, con artists.
